    Folder problem in XP

    I have tried booting into Safe Mode and that has not fixed it. I tried going through 'Tools -> Folder Options' but even though it keeps reverting back to the option 'Show each folder in the same window' it doesn't... If I change the setting to 'Show each folder in its own window' then close...

    Folder problem in XP

    Thanks for the post Linney. I'll probably not win any prizes for saying this, but I don't have system restore - I turned it off some time ago (can't remember why) and I only just remembered I'd turned it off when I encountered the problem I mentioned! I will attempt to use Safe Mode tomorrow...

    Folder problem in XP

    I recently attempted to change the icon of a folder via 'Folder Options/File Types' (to no avail) and then found out that I could not open the folders in the same window anymore - each folder opens in a separate window cluttering up the taskbar and being annoying. I checked the options and the...

    Mouse Wheel

    What kind of mouse are you using? I used to own a Logitech (Forgotten model) that had software which allowed you to change the function of each key. If your mouse has some associated software, maybe find it and check that the functions haven't been 'messed up'?

    Media Player 10 Problem.

    Nero does seem to effect some software negatively. If, after installing Nero, the problem re-occurs, you could try re-installing MP 'on top of' everything else. Also, check that you have all codecs, and I think MP needs a certain framework, although I could be wrong. (maybe .NET?) There is...

    Missing folder after installing game

    After installing the game 'Battlefield 2', a folder containing ~20GB of other games has disappeared. It is not in the recycle bin, nor has it been moved. I have run a Search for it, which has come up blank. The Hard Drive has recently been replaced, as have the MoBo and Memory. Running...

    Making a HTML page display in a DIV container...

    Wow! Thanks to all that replied! I have looked at them all, and decided that Vragabond's idea of making multiple pages with the same layout and changing the text seems most viable to me. The reason I think this is, firstly, I have no idea what AJAX is, and I've never used php. Secondly...

    Making a HTML page display in a DIV container...

    I have what is essentially a 2 column layout, with a large content area on the right, and some links on the left. The CSS and HTML are shown below. Basically, when a link is clicked, I want to be able to make the relevant page show in the content section on the right. This is probably really...

    display hidden content (not sure what to title this)

    YOu could use a different layer to contain each piece of information, each with a different name. Set them initially to hidden. Then, using the behaviours panel (I use MX2004, and it's on the right hand side of the screen) add behaviours for your links, so that when clicked, each respective...

    Sorting via a surname

    That's more or less what I want. But I want it to be an automatic thing, so that there's no dialogue pops up when the text field is clicked. I managed to get the Like query working OK, and now that is the next step. Also, it needs to update all related details on the form, so if the name...

    Sorting via a surname

    As part of my uni coursework, I have to create a database that contains members and bookings for a court (squash, tennis, etc). The basic layout and everything is done, and I need to know how to search, for example, a surname field without the user having to type in a name first. So: say the...

    Layers and inserting pages into same =)

    Thanks Lebisol! I decided against frames, and after speaking with a friend who had recently completed a similar project, have used the behaviours 'modifier' to display and hide layers when necessary. This meant I couldn't use Flash text as before, rather, I used normal hyperlinks. This seemed...

    Layers and inserting pages into same =)

    Newbie to Dreamweaver MX 2004. I'm trying to use a layer to display a separate page of my site, but I can't work it out. For example, I have a front page with an empty layer (that I want my new page to be displayed in) called display (for the time being). When a link is clicked in another...
